Menara JLand responds to these evolving trends by incorporating a holistic workplace where strategic space planning is employed to address the demands of modern organisation and its evolving workforce.

Featuring an ecosystem of interrelated zones and settings, the tower’s spatial configuration supports focused work, collaboration, socialising and learning with the aim to empower employees and help them feel more engaged and energized at work.

DESIGN APPROACH

ARCHITECTURE IS FUNCTIONAL ART WITH FOUNDATIONS IN DESIGN, TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE. AS A KEY INTERFACE FOR HUMAN EXPERIENCE, BUILDINGS SHOULD BE DESIGNED TO ENHANCE OUR BUILT ENVIRONMENT AND ELEVATE THE QUALITY OF LIFE.

Site analysis is an essential part of the architectural process. During the initial stage, it presents architects and designers with important information of the site so that they can establish design possibilities, identify the challenges to resolve and bring forth other elements that they can leverage and build on.

Analysis of the building’s immediate context aside, there are many other factors to take into consideration to ensure the best design outcome. These include the cultural aspects of the site’s surrounding as well as the collective perception of the original state of the building.

DESIGN OVERVIEW

At 37 storeys high, Menara JLand is an outstanding addition to the skyline of Johor Bahru City. Located in the Johor Bahru Central Business District, this premier Grade ‘A’ corporate tower sits atop the well-known Johor Bahru City Centre or JBCC.

Designed as a modern urban sculpture, Menara JLand features an asymmetrical form with a contemporary facade. The tower’s silhouette and structural aesthetics effectively create a centrepiece for Johor Bahru city, commanding attention amidst its commercial surroundings. To reinforce its architectural concept, the facade integrates a series of floorplates that tapers all the way to the top in a contemporary language, which is translated into an exceptional ascending appearance.

The tower’s impressive height presents the opportunity to include a public observatory, roof top restaurants, sky garden and sky walk on Level 34. The observation deck incorporates a stunning sky bridge which features a curved cantilevered glass element - a first in Johor Bahru that offers 360-degree aerial views of downtown Johor Bahru and Singapore like never before.

With its geometric appeal and sheer height, the tower establishes itself as a prominent landmark, serving as a gateway into Johor from Singapore while offering privileged access to Johor Bahru City Square, Persada Johor International Convention Centre and UTC Johor.

A certified GBI gold-rated building, Menara JLand employs a range of sustainable design features to ensure there is efficient use of energy, water and resources throughout the development. Some of the key features include a cold-warped unitised aluminium curtainwall system that provides 50% of natural lighting to boost energy efficiency and act a water-proof barrier as well as electronic air filters to promote better indoor air quality and prevent adverse pollutants from the streets outside.

The building also incorporates superior low-energy lighting, double glazed low-energy windows and energy-efficient equipment and fittings along with an advanced rainwater harvesting system. To create a network of green pockets in the tower, 18 sky gardens are placed on alternate floors while modern technological systems including a 5-tier security system and 8 high-speed lifts built to MSC certification ensure the building operates efficiently.

Sustainable design is about designing responsibly to produce spaces

that are appealing, functional and facilitate the well-being of people

and the planet. Ideally, design outcomes should offer the best of both

worlds: maximising the positive benefits for human comfort while

minimising energy use and waste along with protecting Earth.

FUTURE VISIONS

VERITAS design group JLAND Tower

REDEFINING OFFICE ARCHITECTURE

Every building reflects its business organisation where its internal spaces play a significant role in creating a positive experience for clients and tenants.

With the emergence of new workspace requirements, office architecture should meet the growing demands for spaces that are professional yet optimal in terms of comfort and style - all these contribute to an office’s credibility that would in turn attract potential tenants and clients.

IT’S IMPORTANT TO DESIGN OFFICE SPACES THAT INSPIRE A SENSE OF ENGAGEMENT AND WELL-BEING. A HAPPY WORKFORCE BOOSTS PRODUCTIVITY AND PUTS THE COMPANY’S CULTURE AND IDENTITY IN A POSITIVE LIGHT.
